During a recent appearance on 'Jesse Watters Primetime,' Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth discussed President Trump's ongoing interest in acquiring Greenland, a territory that Denmark has ruled out selling. Despite Trump's earlier attempts at negotiations, tensions have escalated, prompting Denmark to boost defense spending by $2 billion. Hegseth emphasized Greenland's strategic value, noting that Trump's approach has shifted global dynamics, particularly regarding military interest in the Arctic from allied countries. The conversation highlighted the seriousness of U.S.-Danish relations and the potential implications of Chinese interests in the region.
We're hearing rumors that Denmark's now spending $2 billion on additional defense and France is considering sending troops... Are our allies really going to do that? I don't think so.
The president recognizes how strategically significant Greenland is... Those countries who were supposed to be charged with protecting it are suddenly flocking with interest because President Trump has reshaped the game.
